“An honest and inspiring book journeying how one man overcame his alcohol addiction; This will help any person who might be contemplating sobriety. It shows how we learn from each other which is incredibly important” -Coach Tony, CEO/Founder@Coach. me

Miles Cook never dreamed he’d be an alcoholic.

Waking one day he realizing how trapped he had become. He embarked on a journey of self-acceptance and vulnerability to claw his way out before it was too late.

With a powerful message and wry self-acceptance, Sobering Thoughts lays bare Miles’ toxic 30-year relationship with alcohol. It exposes slipping from a social norm to a crippling addiction controlling his life which robs you and your family of your best self. This deeply moving book will speak to your heart as you watch Miles’ struggle through a rollercoaster of self-taught recovery as he tries to reclaim his life.

Revealing a powerful solution he used to break his addiction, Miles hopes his story will inspire and empower readers, providing an illuminating look at the dangers of a drinking habit gone out of control – and how it’s not too late for anyone to become sober.

Honest and dark, yet equally hopeful and insightful, this story resonates with anybody who has suffered a problem with alcohol. This is not a tale to get lost in – but one to find yourself in instead.

Use it to self-help yourself. No one is going to do that for you.
